So here's the deal..

I am a chronic over-eater. Ridiculously so! If I am bored, I eat. If I am tired, I eat. If I am happy, I eat. If I am sad.. I think you get what I am saying here. And I also drive around 3.5 - 4 hours a day to work. What do you suppose I do in that time? You guessed it.. Eat. You know what I realised the other day. I can't even remember the last time I felt hungry. Like really truly hungry. Sad huh?

Anyhow, so here's the deal. I am not going to embark on some ridiculous 'diet', or start exercising like a woman possessed. I am slowly going to adopt one or two healthy thing into my life every week. So week 1 - Run!! I live on a hill - a natural inclined treadmill!! Once or twice up and down my driveway a day won't kill me! And no soft drinks. Water only. And coffee.. That's just one thing I am not prepared to give up just yet!

Speaking of coffee, I ordered my usual at the new cafe that has been opened in our building at work.
My order "a large mocha please!" Cafe lady's reply "skim??"

Do you think she was trying to tell me something??? :D

Until next time

I need motivation.. STAT

Well look who's come crawling back again.. Yep. Me.

I have just logged back into blogger for the first time in 2 years.. 2 YEARS!!  And sadly,it's not to gloat about my fabulous new body, or even talk about how I am half way there.

Truth be told.. I am back at square one. Hell, I never left square one! I'm in the negative squares!

I am making it my mission to post at least twice a week.. I need to keep myself honest. Even if honest means admitting to eating a large McChicken meal AND 6 nuggets AND then picking at the kids leftover chips (Mmm hmmm.. been there several times before!).

Ok, so tonight was a kind of 'last hurrah' before I start my new 'lifestyle'. I will not call it a diet, because I always fail miserably with diets. And it's nothing unusual - it's sticking to fresh fruit and vegies, and trying to eat as unprocessed as I can. Clean eating seems to be the buzz word - and that seems to be what I am doing.

I am so serious about this, that I am potentially going to embarrass myself majorly here..

So here are my honest to goodness stats:

Height: 165cm
Weight: 110kgs (OMG??!!??!!)

I will update with measurements on my next blog post.. I seemed to have misplaced my measuring tape tonight!

So, here we go again.. Back on the horse, and hopefully staying on this time!

'Til next time
